Subject: [PATCH v2 net-next 0/2] Start making stats consistent

It does not appear that the sysfs class net stats have been clearly
defined, resulting in different network interfaces implementing them
slightly different. Define that the rx_bytes and tx_bytes counters
should include the Ethernet header, data and FEC. Modify the r8152 USB
Ethernet driver to include the FEC in its counters.

    tx_bytes
